There's a guy on Twitch who livestreams "playing" a game with something like this, except there's no map. It's a similar site that shows you a random location and he basically "walks" around and tries to drop a pin on a map as close to the point as possible. Sounds kinda boring but I ended up watching an hour of it and it's interesting the sort of visual clues and techniques you can use to suss places out.

Not sure if its the same one as the video you are referring to but here is a game that does exactly that.

Geoguessr is actually awesome for social gatherings and stuff, its amazing how you can sometimes get pretty close just from the first glance

Awesome, I was just about to comment that making a game out of it would be cool!

I played a game like that once and happened to land right next to a sign that said it was the border between 2 states.
